Saturday 7/30/1971: Atlanta's Flanigan severely injured
ATLANTA - Atlanta's pitcher Tom Flanigan was part of a scary incident that saw the left-hander being hit by a line drive in the 2nd inning of the game between Atlanta and San Francisco. Team trainers immediately rushed onto the field after the frightening scene. Flanigan will miss about 4-5 weeks. After being taken to a local hospital, Flanigan was examined by specialists. The diagnosis revealed the sad truth, a Broken Hand. In 22 starts this year Tom struck out 126 batters in 138 innings of work. His ERA is 2.87, his record 13-5. He's 6th in the National League in wins!

Saturday 7/23/1971: Jim Bibby blanks Houston with a 1-hitter
HOUSTON - Jim Bibby took the mound and never left. And Houston hitters couldn't touch him at all. Philadelphia's right-hander gave up just one hit in his 2nd shutout of the season. He now has 6 career shutouts in 56 games started. Bibby (11-10) struck out 4 and issued 3 BB, throwing 61 of 104 pitches for strikes. 'My catcher called a very good game. I have to give credit to him.' Philadelphia's leftfielder Bob Aspromonte stroked 3 hits in 4 AB. That was enough to support the brilliant performance of Bibby. Philadelphia improved its record to 37-59, scoring 6 runs on 12 hits.
